“…Furthermore, related works have given us ideas to improve our system. For example, Piumsombon and colleagues have showed the effect of visualizing the interlocutors' field of view [17,18]. Gauglitz and colleagues showed that additional visual annotations such as arrow cursors and drawings by a helper are effective in improving the remote collaboration [8,9].…”

Tele-guidance systems for the remote monitoring and maintenance of equipment have been extensively investigated. Such systems enable a remote helper to provide guidance to a local worker while perceiving local conditions. In this study, we propose a tele-guidance system that supports the anticipation of an interlocutor's actions during communication. Our proposed system enables a helper and worker to anticipate each other's actions by allowing them to move around in the workspace freely and observe each other's non-verbal cues (e.g., body motions and other gestures) through a head-mounted display. We conducted an experiment to compare the effectiveness of our proposed method with that of existing methods (a simple tele-pointer) that support anticipation during communication.

“…Remote collaboration is more often used than co-located collaboration, mainly to create a communication between a user in the real world and a remote expert who may help the user perform some particular task. In [4] a prototype called CoVAR is presented, where two remote users wearing HMDs can collaborate. In this case, the user in the real world wears a HoloLens, an optical see-through AR visualization device, and the user in the VR wears an HTC Vive.…”

“…Most of the studies deal with similar users, even in the case of remote users using a combination of AR and VR. In [1,4,7,8] both users are wearing HMDs and in [2,9] all users interact through similar hand-held devices. Collaborative systems with heterogeneous users are more difficult to find, such as the work previously described in [4].…”

Collaborative systems with heterogeneous users are more difficult to find, such as the work previously described in [4]. Another example is [10] where a robotic arm placed near the user in the real world is controlled by the remote user to see and project annotations.…”

“…Nevertheless, this is a key aspect when remote users have independent PoVs. In [4] a user study reveals that showing where the other users are looking to, improves the collaboration between them. In this case, three virtual objects are used: head's 3D model, the field of view's pyramid and a ray with gaze's direction.…”
